What to do if Major TDR 16000 discharges material unevenly?

  lisadavisAug 16, 2025
  If your Major Lawn Mower discharges material unevenly, leaving bunches along the swath, it could be due to a couple of reasons. First, the material might be too high and too much. To resolve this, reduce your ground speed while maintaining 540rpm at the tractor PTO, or make two passes over the material, raising the mower for the first pass and lowering it to the desired height for the second, cutting at a 90-degree angle to the first pass. Also, if the grass is wet, allow it to dry before mowing and slow down the ground speed of the tractor while keeping the engine running at full PTO rpm. Cutting lower may also help.

  If your Major Lawn Mower blade is scalping the ground, it could be because the mower is set too low, so raise the mower and reset the wheels. Alternatively, the field may be ridged, in which case you should cut the field at a different angle. If the field is too wet, stop and wait until it has dried.

Why Major Lawn Mower leaves a streak of uncut grass?
- M
  michaelmccormickAug 21, 2025
  If your Major Lawn Mower leaves a streak of uncut or partially cut grass, several factors could be at play. The blades might be dull or bent, requiring replacement. The carrier RPM could be too low, so ensure you're using the correct PTO speed. If the field conditions are too wet, it's best to halt operation until it dries out. A ground speed that's too fast can also cause this issue, so reduce it by shifting to a lower gear. If the grass is down from previous weather, try mowing in only one direction. Also, check for any build-up of materials under the mower and clean it if necessary. Finally, ensure the blades are mounted correctly, with the cutting edge facing the correct rotation.

  If your Major Lawn Mower is making excessive noise, several factors could be the cause. Check for worn bearings and replace them if necessary. Ensure the oil level in the gearbox is adequate and add oil if it's low. Inspect for any loose parts and fully tighten all bolts. Verify that the PTO RPM rate is correct and adjust as needed. Replace any bent or missing blades. Check that the PTO shafts are aligned correctly. Also, check the output shaft on gearboxes and the driveline between gearboxes are aligned.

Why is the gearbox leaking on my Major Lawn Mower?
- J
  Joel TurnerSep 5, 2025
  If the gearbox on your Major Lawn Mower is leaking, there are several potential causes. It could be due to a damaged oil seal, a bent shaft, or a shaft that is rough in the oil seal area. The oil seal might also be installed incorrectly or not sealing in the housing. Other possible causes include an oil level that is too high, a hole in the gearbox, a damaged gasket, or loose bolts. To address these issues, you may need to replace the seal, shaft, or gasket, use a sealant on the outside diameter of the seal, drain oil to the proper level, replace the gearbox, or tighten the bolts.

  If your Major Lawn Mower seems to require excessive power, it could be due to several reasons. You might be advancing into the grass too rapidly, in which case you should reduce your forward travel speed. The mower might be hitting the ground, so raise the mower and reset the wheels. The blades could be worn or dull, so sharpen or replace them. Finally, the tractor might not be large enough, so use a larger horsepower tractor.
